Endings

Endings was choreographed by Christine Sieberg of Aurea Dance and performed in May 2008 in Cambridge, MA. The piece was inspired by the Mitch Albom quote: "But all endings are also beginnings. We just don't know it at the time." (The Five People You Meet In Heaven, p.1). Music was composed specifically for this piece by Clark Franklin (a.k.a. Ben Hochberg). There is also some music by Alicia Keys. Music was arranged by Ben Hochberg.

When I watch this I feel the often conflicting feelings experienced in a young romance. From the comfort of a circle of friends to the more intimate relationship between two, The loves me / loves me not, the exhileration and the pain, the desire to be together and the need to walk away, the beginnings and the endings. It is extremely moving and beautifully done. bb
